Warm Toes

Presently it is -15 outside. That’s cold and not as cold as some of my friends are reporting on Facebook. There are posts listing -17, -18 even -20. Actual real temperatures, not wind chill. Factoring in wind chill some of those are reading close to -30. That’s cold, in fact, that’s damn cold.

It is a good night to be grateful for the small things that are really big things that we often take for granted. Warm toes, blankets, a place to be in from the cold and the wood to keep it warm. A nice hot cup of tea by the fire. Someone to share it with — these are all very good things.
